Hypnosis for Children

If your child, or teen experiences anxiety, irrational fears, has bad habits, is lacking in confidence whether in sports or with the grades, consider hypnosis.

Hypnosis has proven effective in helping our children improve in many areas of their lives.

Parents from throughout the area, from NJ and NY especially, have been travelling to my Paramus, NJ office to help their child learn the skills to positive life changes.

My practice is unique in that I have been trained in the area of children (aka. pediatric) hypnosis. Many other Hypnotists don't work with Teenagers and Young Children. Perhaps they don't feel comfortable with the age of their clients. Perhaps they really don’t get it, that Teens and Children are in a state of Natural Hypnosis most of the time!! And, therefore, are the easiest and best clients to work with.

And, it’s too bad. Just think of all the chidren that could be helped if more hypnotists worked with that age, and by doing so, spread the word about its success. Helping a child/teen now, while they’re open and flexible, can improve their lives for many, many years to come.

Of course the parent or guardian is always in the room when I work with Children and Teens under 18 with hypnosis. Success is ensured when the child feels safe and comfortable. (I even insist that when an appointment is made for a child, that the guardian show them my picture. Why? Because I want them to be familiar with my face, feeling like they already know me when they walk through the door. Also, they may be curious as to what a hypnotist looks like. Children especially have wonderful imaginations, and they may not even have to close their eyes. They are terrific and easy to work with.

With teens, I talk to them as I would an adult. I take their concerns very seriously, and so give them the respect and courtesy I would give to any other client or child.

Consider all the many reasons why a Teen or Younger Child might find Hypnosis helpful. Their lives are very stressful….whether with sports, cheerleading, studying for exams, overall confidence, stress management, and just the normal fears.

But there are others that we may not realize and could be helped with my New Jersey New York Children Hypnosis Services:

Accepting Change & Growing - Sometimes we all have difficulty accepting life’s changes, even moving ahead. We need reminders there are new choices and new adventures to look forward to.

Being Happy by Choice - Abraham Lincoln said “A man is as happy as he makes up his mind to be.” And of course that applies to women and children, too! It’s time you started looking for things to be happy about instead of focusing on the negative?

Maintaining wellness and Minimizing Chronic Pain - Self-Hypnosis and Guided Imagery Instruction can work to create natural wellness. ? Many teens and children find using Self Hypnosis and Guided Imagery easier than a lot of adults! And even better – no negative side effects!

Sleeping easier, and through the night. - Children and Teens sometimes have trouble turning off their minds when it's time to go to sleep. Hypnosis will stop their tossing and turning. Stop their waking up in the middle of the night, only to lay awake, not able to return to sleep. They will use the power of their minds to get their rest.

Confidence-Building - Most of us, if not all, would like to have more confidence. Children and teens most of all. They are bombarded with negative images, messages that weaken their level of confidence. We all have a right and the ability to be confident. Let’s work on it together and see how much better your future can be.

Public Speaking with Confidence - The # 1 fear in America is the Fear of Public Speaking. Fact. The # 2 fear is fear of snakes. Again, fact. Do you know what the # 3 fear is?

Wouldn’t you rather enjoy, rather than dread, speaking in front of a group of friends, classmates, and colleagues? Wouldn't it be better to get this confidence early in life, as a child or teenager? Instead of suffering with it into adulthood, get the self-confidence now so that the next time you’re called on to address a group or club, rather than feel yours knees shake, you’ll stand up at the podium with strength. You’ll actually enjoy it.

Overcoming Shyness - We aren’t born with shyness, it’s a learned behavior. If you learned o be shy, then you can learn not to be shy. That makes sense doesn’t it? You can learn to be comfortable around others without the butterflies and nausea. Just imagine how “new and improved” your life will feel.

Bad Habit Control and Elimination - And just like shyness, all bad habits are learned, some in childhood, and others later in life. Then, they just become reinforced as we age. Our lives are the direct result of decisions and choices made in the past. It’s important to learn a new healthier habit to bring you happiness instead of keeping one going that creates unhappiness. Could a bad habit be holding you back right now?

Here are just a few bad habits Hypnosis can help
your children master and eliminate:

• Shyness
• Nail biting
• Hair pulling (trichotillomania)
• Stuttering
• Bruxism (teeth grinding caused by stress)
• Lateness
• Overeating
• Bad study habits
• Procrastination
• Laziness
• Excessive shopping
• Excessive eating
• Interrupting others in conversation
• Excessive internet browsing
• Staying up too late
• Being a “Couch Potato"

Choosing to Let Go of Anger - When you’re angry, whether at someone or a situation, you have given away some of your control. It’s probably not bothering that other person, so why not learn hypnosis to control anger.

Choosing to let go of the Past - We can get stuck in the past, forgetting to let go and enjoy the present. Maybe it’s a move to a new city, a new school. Maybe there’s been a change in the family, or moving from high school to college, or from one job to another. Whatever the reason, hypnosis can teach your child to focus on today, and not the past. What a relief that will be.

Choosing to love yourself more, aka. Improved Self Esteem - We all want to be loved by others, but how can someone love you if YOU don’t love YOU? Hypnosis works on our self-esteem, and allowing us to forgive ourselves and move forward.

Choose to boost Creativity - Ever get writer’s block? Or become stumped when you’ve had to think up a new idea, or expand on an existing one. Maybe your Creativity just needs a boost!

Goal Setting and Taking Action - These two points are the keys to success. In order to take action, you need to have a plan. How will get your goals accomplished? So many of us create goals, but rarely do we have the plan in place. Hypnosis will bring you to your goal.

Productive Procrastination - No, it’s not a typo. I meant to say, “Productive Procrastination.” That means to procrastinate the things that are time wasters. That’s what I teach children to avoid and overcome through hypnosis.

Stress Management and Relaxation - Stress is one of the leading causes of so many health-related problems. Hypnosis will teach you to relax, let go, both physically and mentally to regain your life and improve its quality!

Please know that I haven’t covered every possible fear, or bad habit. But that doesn’t mean I can’t work together with your children to correct it. Give me a call at 201-728-4831 or email me and let’s figure it out.
